Ravioli Pizza

Ravioli Pizza

This recipe has become a hit at our house, so much so that I’ve made it twice in the last week. One night it was dinner with a salad and hot breadsticks, the other day as an appetizer. When I made it as appetizers I separated the ravioli so they weren’t touching. I bought a 2 lb. bag of frozen ravioli and used half for the pizza, the remaining for the appetizer. You start by cooking frozen ravioli to almost done. Then coat them in a little oil and Parmesan cheese.

Bake until golden brown. This gets it so the ravioli forms a crispy crust. Seriously you won’t miss the pizza dough and I’m a confirmed crust girl!

Next you are going to top the raviolis with pizza sauce and some cooked Italian sausage. Pepperoni and any other choice of meat will work or even skip the meat but it is delicious with the Italian sausage.

Top with mozzarella cheese, green peppers and red onions. You can use any combination of vegetables you’d like.

Bake about another 18 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly and starting to turn to a golden brown.
